MinmiTheDinoI used to weave through traffic on the streets of manhattan on my 1970s lotus racing bike, free as the wind.
Now I ride this.
Children will humble you in ways you never considered.
(I do love my ebike though, even if it is so embarrassing)
Olivier Leroy@minmi I also miss my light bike.. be ready for my midlife crisis!!!
@defuneste 🤣 at least a midlife crisis bike has gotta be cheaper than a Porsche right?
@minmi yeah even those really fancy bike at the bike shop do not compete in price with a car!

🏳️🌈 Bri 🌞🚴🌱✨@minmi GSD bud! My friend called it the minivan of bikes and it's not beating the allegations. It's also an incredible ride, though 🤩✨
@cargot_robbie yuuuuup. But just like minivans, you can’t deny it does an awesome job. It’s incredible to me I can get both my kids up the hill I live on. Actually life changing.
And embarrassing haha.
@minmi Embarassing 😲 I hope not, It's so rad! I bet the kids have a much better experience than from the back of a true minivan. I have so many curious parents asking about it every summer
@cargot_robbie they love it. It’s so fun! I’m really grateful there’s enough safe routes around the city now (though wouldn’t mind more!)
@minmi It makes such a difference. Our city has put in so many bike routes in the ~20 years I've lived here, it's night and day. I can only imagine what 20 more years will do
@cargot_robbie it’s incredible to see the difference from when I was growing up, and the massive amount of bikes compared to what we used to have. I love it so much!!
Chad McCullough@minmi Nothing embarrassing about this at all. You're taking care of your family and doing it without the use of a car. 💯
